Installation Guide Before you begin: These two below are required: Phillips head
Anti-static
screwdriver
wrist strap
Please review the manuals provided by your component suppliers for product safety and electro-magnetic interference (EMI) regulatory compliance information. Please pay particular attention to electro-static discharge (ESD) procedures described in those documents.
Step 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
1 Set up Take out the enclosure from the container. Remove the packing foam. Remove the plastic bag. Place the enclosure upright on a stable, flat surface with the rear facing the operator. Remove thumb screws which secure the removable side panel, draw the latch upwards and take away the panel from the enclosure.
NOTE:
If there is a lock or hasp present, unlock or loose it first.
6.
Unlock the front bezel lock by pressing it, grasp the lower lip tightly and jerk outwards to remove the bezel away from the chassis.
Press the lock 7.
Inside you will find the power supply, system fan, bracket for expansion card, cables with marked connectors, an installed I/O panel and a power cord.
Step 2
Motherboard installation
This guide does not cover CPU or RAM installation. For that information, please consult your motherboard manual. Install those items before proceeding M/B installation. These instructions are applied to the installation of an ATX motherboard. 1. Lay the enclosure on its side with the open side up. If extended, move the swivel feet to their “closed” position.
2. Press and hold the motherboard bracket (tray) lock as shown in the figure below.
Slide the tray towards the front panel until it releases and then lift it out.
3.Line up the motherboard with the standoffs (posts) located in the motherboard tray. Insure that there is a hole in the motherboard for each associated standoff. Do NOT attempt to install your motherboard in this enclosure if there are any “missing” holes in
your motherboard.

NOTE: If the standoffs in the motherboard tray do NOT match your motherboard,
please leave the tray out and attach the motherboard at the matching standoff holes in the floor of the chassis.
If standoffs are not included, please purchase locally.

The motherboard can now be easily removed from the
5
Compare the rear ports on the motherboard with the “rear I/O shield” (plate) which installed in the enclosure.
As applicable, pop out available covers in the plate to
insure the motherboard and plate match.
If the plate and motherboard do NOT
match, replace the plate which installed in the enclosure with the plate (I/O shield) provided with your motherboard.
If the plate is missing, consult your motherboard
supplier. 6
Insert the assembled motherboard and motherboard “tray” into the enclosure. Make sure to align the slots in the tray with the “alignment pins” on the “floor” of the enclosure. Gently press down on the motherboard near the center and slide the tray towards the rear of the enclosure until it snaps into place with rear motherboard ports at or protruding through the holes in the rear “I/O shield”.
alignment pins

Step 3
Connect the power supply’s main power cable(s) to your motherboard.
Fan installation This enclosure comes pre-assembled with a 120*120*25mm cooling fan at the rear. If
the fan has not been pre-assembled, please proceed as follows. 1
Assemble the fan and fan bracket as shown. Spin the fan blade and confirm that the fan has been oriented to exhaust air from the enclosure to outwards. the fan in the bracket.
2
If not, reverse
The fan will snap into the bracket.
Align the four hasps with holes in the rear panel, slide downwards until the sound of “crack” and complete fan installation.
3
Connect the fan’s power cable to the motherboard. See the motherboard manual for the location of the appropriate “fan power” header.
Step 4
5.25” drive installation
1. Push backwards and make the CD-ROM-FIX is in the same condition as shown below
2. Stop pushing 5.25’’ drive toward the rear panel until the distance between drive bezel and front panel reach 2 to 3 inches
3. Return the CD-ROM-FIX to the original location, continue to push 5.25 drive until the sound of “crack and finish drive installation.
4. Connect the power supply to each drive using an attached power cable.
NOTE: If
you have any 5.25” serial ATA (SATA) drives, you will probably need an adapter cable between the power supply cable and each drive. Such cables are not provided with this enclosure.
Step 5 3.5” FDD (floppy disk drive) installation Just under the 5.25” drive bays, there are two 3.5” drive bays. FDD installation is similar to 5.25” drive installation. NOTE: Do not remove the shield panels at the front of unused drive bays as they act as EMI shields.
Step 6
HDD (hard disk drive) installation By applying toolless design idea, the whole assemble & disassemble process of HDD
does NOT need screwdriver and any other kits. The process is divided into three steps as below: 1.
Pull both side’s HDD-fix-bracket which need to install HDD out.
2. Slide down HDD to the bottom along HDD-fix-bracket.
3. Return HDD-fix-bracket to the original location and complete HDD installation.
4. Refer to above method when you need to install more HDD. NOTE: Reverse the sequence when you need to disassemble HDD.
Step 7
Expansion/adapter card installation This enclosure supports the installation of up to seven (7) expansion/adapter cards.
1.
Select the Expansion card bracket you want to install, pinch it and swivel upwards, take down the installed slot cover.
2. Insert the Expansion card into the connector, swivel down the Expansion-card-bracket until
the sound of “click” and complete the Expansion card installation.
.
Step 8
Data cable connection
After you have connected the devices to the power supply, you need to connect data cables between the devices and the motherboard (and/or expansion/adapter cards). The data cables are not included with this enclosure, we include this information only as an aid. 1
For hard drives and optical drives, use the IDE/ATAPI (and/or SATA) data cables provided with your motherboard, with the drives, or otherwise. For floppy drives, use 34-pin data cables. The cables should have a colored strip on one side indicating pin number 1. When you connect a
cable to a device, make sure that the colored
strip is on pin number 1 side of the device, usually on the side towards the power connector.
Check the documentation that came with the cables and/or devices to
insure proper cable alignment and engagement. 2
The end of ribbon cables that attaches to a device is the end that has 2 connectors (i.e., the end towards which two of the three connectors are offset). Connect the other end of the ribbon cable to your motherboard or expansion/adapter card.
Step 9 Led, Power, USB, Audio, and IEEE-1394 connections There are various cables coming from near the front of the enclosure. They include cables attached to the power switch, HDD activity LED, power LED, front USB ports, a front IEEE-1394 port, and audio ports.
Their connectors are labeled to correspond to features
supported by your motherboard. Please consult your motherboard manual for connection instructions.
Step 10
Front bezel installation
There are a series “drive bay cover plates” in the front bezel.
There are also six
metallic “claws” on the back-side of the bezel. 1. At the locations where drives are installed in the main enclosure structure, remove the corresponding drive bay cover plates from the front bezel. 2. Insert the six claws on the rear of the bezel into the corresponding six holes in the front enclosure structure and push on the bezel until the claws snap into the holes and the installed drives protrude through the corresponding openings in the bezel. You may need to gently tap the bezel into place.
Step 11
Side panel installation
1. As shown in the below photo, hold the side handle with one hand, gently match the side panel with the swivel, spin the swivel and complete side panel installation.
2. Install the two (2) provided thumb screws.
Step 12
Washable air filter and its maintenance
This enclosure includes an air filter to help prevent dust from entering the enclosure through the “air duct” in the side panel. From time to time it will be necessary to clean this filter. The filter can be quickly removed (slid out) or reinstalled (slid back in) without removing the duct..
NOTE: Not cleaning the air filter may result in higher system temperatures and possible
stability problems. We recommend initially checking the filter at least once a month. The frequency can be adjusted depending on system use and environmental conditions.
